Final Chapter 82

I heard Xiao Xiang's words, Xiao Yuan immediately stood up and poured the wine in the glass to the ground. When he saw this, everyone in the room also stood up and followed suit.

Xiao Xiang regained his seat, took up the second glass of wine, and said to Xiao Yuan and the princes, "This time, I would like to thank Brother Er and the Hou Ye for your help. Without your help, I am afraid that the court will calm down The chaos of Hong Yuetian will also take a lot of work! "

Xiao Xiaoyuan and the princes hurriedly picked up the wine glasses and laughed, "Xiang Mei, there is no need for the family to say two more words!" "Yes, Her Royal Highness is very kind."

Xiao Xiaoxiang smiled on her back and said, "Go!"

"Go!"

Everyone drank the drink in the glass. Putting down the cup, Xiao Xiang suddenly remembered something and said with a smile to Xiao Yuan and the princes: "Yes, there is another gift for you in this palace." After speaking, she raised her hand and slap twice. .

Soon, a guard approached from the outside, holding a square box in his hand.

The servant guard walked until Xiao Xiang approached, then put the brocade box on the desk case and bowed back. With a smile on his face, Xiao Xiang patted the lid of the brocade box, looked at the princes, and asked with a smile, "You Hou Ye, what do you know?"

The nature that can be displayed in public by Xiao Xiang must be a rare and rare treasure. The princes laughed and guessed everything, but Xiao Xiang always shook his head to show that they were wrong.

Finally, Xiao Yuan said with a smile: "Xiang Mei, don't sell anymore, let us all open our eyes!"

"Okay! Now that Brother Wang has spoken, let's take a look!" Between the words, Xiao Xiang shook his head to the close guard next to him.

Guard came forward and slowly removed the lid of the brocade box. The moment the lid was removed, the four sides of the box were also spread out. Looking at the box, the treasure box was not a rare treasure, but a pale, bloodless human head.

I saw that there was a broken head inside the box. All the people present were frightened, especially the princes. They were all shocked, and several people screamed.

Xiao Yuan jumped up, his eyes stared round and round, staring at Xiao Xiang without blinking, and asked, "What does Xiangmei mean?"

Xiao Xiang smiled, looked down at the broken head on the table, and said quietly: "This is the first level of the chaos party Hong Yuetian. This thief was bold and took his troops back to the capital in private, colluding with the big brother, causing disaster to the court and others. Abominable, heartbroken, to defeat Hong Yuetian in a battle, the princes all contributed, and this palace naturally wants you to see the results of this rebellion. "Speaking, she frowned, glanced at Xiao Yuan asked with a smile: "What do the two brothers think the sister Wang has?"

Xiao Yuan first looked at Xiao Xiang, and then looked at the broken head on the table. He was silent for a while, and then he just sat back slowly. The princes present were ugly than one, and unknowingly, they were already sweating.

Hong Yuetian's charges are based on any one of them. Today, Xiao Xiang can cause Hong Yuetian to die with such charges. Then tomorrow, she can also use the same charges to get rid of herself. It is absolutely impossible to say that the princes are not afraid.

At this time, Xiao Yi trembled and owed himself, saying, "His Royal Highness Princess, the old minister ... The old minister intends to lead the army back to Changshan in the near future ..."

Before he finished speaking, Xiao Xiang smiled on his back and waved his hand and said, "What's the matter, Uncle Wang? Since they have all come to Zhaoyang, live longer!"

Changshan Hou Xiaoyi and Xiao Xiang belong to the same lineage. In terms of seniority, he is indeed one generation higher than Xiao Xiang, who is right to call him Uncle Wang.

I just shrank Xiao Yi's entire heart called by her, and sweat beads fell down, and I didn't know what to say for a while.

Xiao Xiang retracted his gaze, and then the words suddenly turned and said, "Recently, it has been an eventful autumn in our country. The wind is being watched by tigers in the north. The rebellion of the virgins in the west has continued, and floods have occurred frequently in the south. Just yesterday, Xiuyang County The county's first high reputation sent an urgent letter to the court. Xiuyang County was continuously raining heavily and Tianjiang flooded. Now it has reached the whole territory of Xiuyang County. Please ask the court to allocate money and food for disaster relief. "

The princes did not understand why Xiao Xiang suddenly talked about the disaster in Xiuyang County, and the second monk was scratching his head. Xiao Yuan's eyes rolled and he said, "Xiang Mei, but the state treasury is empty now, not enough for disaster relief?"

Hearing his words, the princes suddenly realized that Xiao Xiang was knocking on his own bamboo pole, but then again, as long as he can keep his head, what is the loss of money and food? Hou Xiaoyi of Changshan first came out and said, "His Royal Highness does not have to worry. Since it is difficult for the imperial court, I waited for Liehou to help." After a moment of pause, he immediately said: "Wei Chen is willing to give five ... eight One hundred and twenty thousand silver, relief for the victims of Xiuyang County! "

As soon as his voice fell, and the princes stood up one after another, people scrambled one after another, and the least number was 500,000.

Xiao Xiang laughed and said, "Thank you, this palace first thanked Hou Ye for your help, but the court can still afford the money and relief for the disaster-stricken people. The reason why this palace raised this matter here is to say What ’s more, disaster relief alone is a cure for the symptoms and not the root cause. Floods in the southern part of China are flooded every year during the rainy season.

"Her Royal Highness means ..."

"Fix the canal!" Xiao Xiang said positively: "Fix a large canal between Tianjiang and Shangjiang to bring the water of Tianjiang to Shangjiang. In this way, not only the concerns about Tianjiang's flooding but also Shangjiang are resolved. The growing anxiety is a matter of benefit to the people of the two places, and a wish of the first king to complete in the future! "

The princes heard that they all breathed in cold air. The Tianjiang Monk River is the two largest water systems in the south of Sichuan. As Xiao Xiang said, the place where Tianjiang flows is rainy and floods are common. Shangjiang is in Withering away, many tributaries have disappeared.

If a large canal can be dug between Tianjiang and Shangjiang, it is of course good. The excess water in Tianjiang can be diverted to Shangjiang, where the water source is insufficient. However, the distance between Tianjiang and Shangjiang is thousands of miles. These two rivers are connected, how big the project is, how much manpower and financial resources are consumed, not millions or tens of millions of dollars.

Even when Xiao Xuan was alive, he only dared to think about it. At best, he took the idea to the court and rubbed his teeth with the ministers, but he did n’t dare to implement it. Now it ’s better. It sounds like Xiao Xiang seems to be cutting the sky Shang Daqu 'means.

The princes all thought that this matter was too unreliable, but no one dared to stand up to express their opposition or doubt. They could not protect themselves. How dare they sing openly against Xiao Xiang.

Seeing that the princes were holding their heads down, silent, Xiao Xiang frowned slowly, and asked, "Why, do you not agree with the digging of the Heavenly Great Ditch? Are you unwilling to complete the last king's will?" "

I heard her ask, and everyone's bodies were the same, and they quickly looked up and said, "No, no, no, Her Royal Highness has misunderstood. This is a good thing for the people in the south of China. How can the officials and others oppose it!"

Wu Xiaoxiang finally smiled on his face and said, "So, do you guys support the resolution of this palace?"

"Exactly!"

"But verbal support is just not enough!" Xiao Xiang said slowly.

Understanding what she meant, Xiao Yi hated her, gritted her teeth, and arched her hand and said, "In order to help Her Royal Highness fulfill the king's last wish, the old minister ... the old minister is willing to donate ... three million two!"

Xiao Yi's back of three million was squeezed out of the gap between his teeth and his face turned into a purple sauce. He had already donated money from his family.

I heard him say that he would donate three million two, and the other vassals were secretly scolding their mothers. You shouted three million two, and what should you say?

The princes bit their heads and shouted an astronomical number that they could not even accept.

She looked at each of the princes as if they were cut. Xiao Xiang laughed secretly in her heart, but did not reveal anything on her face. She reluctantly shook her head and said, "Now the treasury is abundant, isn't it lack of money!"

"Then ... but lack of food?"

"Haha!" Xiao Xiang laughed ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ said: "I have fertile land in Sichuan, when did I lack food?"

"I don't know ... what's missing from the court now?"

"People!" Xiao Xiang quilted his eyes and said quietly, "The most important thing in our country now is labor! As long as there is sufficient labor, it will be easy to excavate the canals of Tianshang. All of you Houye should know that China At present, internal and external problems, it is impossible to deploy so much labor to excavate the Tianshang Grand Canal. The idea of ​​this palace is that the family army of Hou Ye can be temporarily loaned to the court, and after the court has completed the Tianshang Grand Canal, The family army was returned to Hou Ye, I do n’t know, what do you like? ”

what? When Xiao Xiang finished speaking, the faces of the princes and even Xiao Yuan changed greatly.

It turned out that this was the purpose of Xiao Xiang's banquet. She was not trying to kill the princes, nor was she trying to extort the princes for a sum of money, but to deprive them of their military power. Rarely, she even found such a sounding reason.

"Her Royal Highness, this ... this ..." Xiao Yi instinctively stood up, looked at Xiao Xiang, and he didn't know what to say. The family army is their lifeblood. It is the capital that each family has accumulated over decades or even hundreds of years. Now Xiao Xiang Lion opens his mouth and asks them to contribute all the family army to the Tianjiang monk. As a labor force in the Jiang area, what kind of **** canal is dug, how can they accept it?

Looking at Xiao Yi, who was standing there with an uncertain face, and then looked at those other princes who had almost the same expression as him, Xiao Xiang smiled and didn't speak, just clamped a chopstick, like ulterior motives and casual light Tapping Hong Yuetian's decapitation on the desk case.
